Circuit
A woman is embarking on a journey, a metaphorical movement that appears to have both a beginning and an end at the same place. This suggests a circular or repetitive nature to her quest, almost as if she is retracing her steps through time.
Her focus is on a collection of old slides, each one a portal to a bygone era. As she gazes upon these images, she is confronted with a poignant truth: the slides themselves are silent witnesses, revealing little about the stories and emotions they encapsulate. They are, in essence, someone else's memories frozen in time.
This film is a reminder of the power of nostalgia and our innate desire to hold onto the fragments of our past, to grasp at the fading echoes of what was once dear to us.
